If there is a Great Pumpkin, I didn't see it!

Yesterday Mommy took me to the pumpkin patch to look for good carving pumpkins for Holloween. She told me the story of the Great Pumpkin on our way there. If he showed up I didn't see him and Mommy even woke me up from my nap to look too! I did get my first wagon ride while we were looking though. I wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to do and tried to eat it on several occasions. I had just started to get the hang of it and then it was time to go! Maybe for Christmas Daddy will get me my own wagon! After the pumpkin patch we went home so I could eat some more oatmeal. I am starting to like it a little bit more and actually swallow some of it now!

I don't know how I feel about the mushy stuff!

Mommy starte me on oatmeal this week and I'm not quite sure how I like it. I do best if my tummy is full before we try it or I just cry and cry. When I am jungary I want to eat, not play with mushy stuff that smell like formula! Once I get the hang of it I don't mind but it is so hard to keep my hands and my bib out of my mouth when it is open. Mommy always has to remind me that I can't eat and suck on other things at the same time!
When we were at Pluckers last week I figured out how to be like Daddy and Uncle T. I wiggle my little arm into the handle of the big cup and hold on! Someday when I can lift the glass and drink like a big person, Mommy and Daddy are not going to think its so cute then!

I'm HOW old?

I am now 4 months old. I went to see the nice Dr on Friday. I weigh 14 lbs and 4 oz and I am 2 feet tall! Mommy and Daddy and I celebrated by going to the Texas State Fair! We watched piggy races (I did not like all the cheering) and we tried fried cookie dough, and spent lots of time in the petting zoo with all these cool looking animals! Daddy enjoyed this part the best! Then I took a nap as Mommy and Daddy wondered around looking at the cars and stuff! I have been working very hard at rolling over (still only when no one is looking) and sitting up with little help! I tried my first bites of Oatmeal on Sunday too! NOt so sure how I feel about that. Mommy said it would probably taste better with formula instead of water but we will see!

Daddy, my jungle gym

Wow it is kind of crazy around here! So much to do and so little time! I am trying so hard to learn to roll over, and trying my hardest to keep it a secret. Mommy caught me 2 times! One time she actually saw me and the other time she turned around and when she turned back I was on my back! I want more practice to perfect my technique before she gets it on film.
I have decided that Daddy makes a darn good jungle gym! We play super baby until his arms shake! And I absolutely adore upside down baby! I giggle and then I send drool bombers on Daddy's head! It is so much fun to watch his face as e gets hit!

Germs, Germs everywhere!

Did Mommy bring the hospital home with her? She is sick, Daddy is sick, Uncle Jonny is sick, and I have the sniffles! She has been back to work all of 3 weeks and I already don't want her to go back! She keeps saying that the kids at work aren't contagious sick but I don't buy it! Where did we all get it? She was at home today which usually means we play and play and play but today she just kept running back and forth to the bathroom and left me to play by myself:( She did tell me that my smile made her day!
